BM Fan Set Halloween KOTD

Hello Ladies,

I got my set of BM plates today. I was so excited to try them out and loved the way they turned out that I entered BM Cirque Du Freak Contest. 
I have never entered a contest for nail art before so I am very very nervous but I think getting out of my comfort zone is good. 
If you do like my nail art I would love any of you to take some time to enter a vote for me. I would be grateful and appreciate it very much!! 

I hope you like it too!

Thanks for dropping by.

Take Care of You!

Neon Sugar Skulls Mani

Hello Ladies,

I finally did a sugar skulls mani today. I am so excited to share this mani. I am in love with sugar skulls but I can't draw worth &^% on my nails so when I finally got my Viva La Mexico plate I wanted to use one of the sugar skulls images. Totally love how this turned out. 

Take care of You!!

NEON KOTD New Camera Pics

Hello Ladies,

Hoping you are doing awesome! I have been gone again for awhile but now I am back. I finally have my new camera too! I am so having to learn about how to use it and the settings, I have it on the basic settings for now trying to get used to it. I was so disapointed when I finally had it in my hands. I always thought that because it was digital it was a normal camera where you look on the screen and shoot. BUT apparently it did not. lol. I had only heard it was a great camera, I didn't know anyone with one so I was a little sad. I am also not used to using the eye thingy for taking my pics. It also makes taking close pics an issue. I think I have a macro lens cuz it has a little flower pic on the lens itself but the clerk at the store that I got it didn't know. If u do know how to see if I do have a macro lens please feel free to share. I tried to see online for suggestions but I don't know which numbers to look at or compare to see if I do have a macro lens. Thank you for any help you can give :)

I have been taking lots of pics but they aren't very forgiving so I am not left with many that I am ok with sharing. I know there will be a learning curve but I feel that you all have put up with crappy pics for long enough. lol

Here are some pics that I made and liked. The last images I wasn't really happy with but I am also sharing my fails in this nail journey so hoping you enjoy the better pics.. 

Thank you for stopping by.
Take care of You!!

******NEON SKITTLE KOTD*****

Hello Ladies,

Hoping your all having a wonderful day! I got some some nail mail today so it started out awesome!! I have been on a no buy for months now waiting for my camera to be paid on so when my hubby said I could get $50 worth of something I quickly went to WowSoCool.com to get me some more stamping polishes.. That is always a good cheap buy. They offer free shipping for Canada and US locations for orders $20 or more so that usually gets 4 plates or stamping polishes for a little over the $20 mark. I am always on the lookout for new plates so usually that takes up most of my monthly amount for nail stuff but I usually can swing $20 so I can get some extra stamping polishes. I have been doing that for about 2 years and now I have almost every Konad polish and Konad Princess polish that is available from their site. I only wish they would get the neon colors that are listed in some other retailers that won't ship to me in Canada. 

On to my nails!! I am in love with how these turned out. I can't ever seem to just use one color or one stamp so I am always stamping multiple images on each nail. I really loved how this mani turned out. It seemed to just go together. I finally got some of the new CG Sunsational polishes last month for Mother's Day. Love these new colors!! 

Thanks for dropping by.

******NEON Skulls KOTD******

Hello Ladies,

Hoping you are all doing awesome!!! Just wanted to share a mani I did last week but forgot to share with you all..
I loved the neon look for any stamping so when I was looking through my plates and seen a new plate that I still had not tried out yet I felt that I needed to use it for this mani.

I know my pics are crappy.. They are iPod pics but I will be all done paying on my awesome new to me camera on July 1st.. YEY!!!! Can't wait. I haven't even had any cash to get polishes or plates.. The only thing aloud to purchase were remover and the pads that is it. I have been dying to get some of the newer plates that are out but can't afford to get but I think my camera will make it worth all my suffering worth it. lol

My clean up was non existent too. Sorry. So, you ladies can call it a fail but I really loved how it looked I will be doing it again with my new camera so next time promise to do a clean up first.. lol.. I know that DSLR's can be non forgiving if not cleaned up right.. lol I will be going through all of my fav pic's of stamping mani's out there that I will be redoing with my new camera just to get back to doing my nails more often. These past few months I have really been going through my own personal hell. My due date is coming up too July 20th which will bring about some new pain at loosing my baby girl so I am really trying to keep my mind busy and my life stress free as possible.. 

 the next two pics are just a couple that I had done awhile ago. I just thought they were kind of cutesy and thought some of you might like them.. 

Take care of You!

Pastel Neon KOTD

Today's KOTD is a fav of mine.. I seen this mani on my favorite stamper of all time Kerrie. I met her through a group on Facebook and I have been so very inspired by her talent. 

 

I am including her original mani and my version of it. I am still paying on my camera so today is only a Iphone pic.. 

I used the Claire's pastel set that I got three sets of last winter after not being able to find the original pastel set with six colours that I have been searching high and low for.. These are as close as I will get..lol. They are still beautiful, bright and almost neon quality. For the stamping I used my new Monster High plate and Sugar Bubbles for the zebra print.

First up is Kerrie's original mani

These are my version of them

New Image Plate KOTD

Hello Ladies,

Hoping you are all doing great! I got a couple new image plates a while ago and I was excited to try it out. I know these are a little messy so please don't mind them. I took these with my Ipod. I am still paying on my new to me Canon EOS 30D camera so it will be about another two months before I can play with my new toy.. lol..I never thought I would be lucky enough to even own one and May first I found a used one with an extra lens, battery pack for sale and they have layaway. I was very excited I was actually doing a little dancing while he was entering my information in the computer.. My youngest son thought we had won something. lol

I was just playing around last night to try this new plate and liked how it turned out so I just wanted to share with you.

Below is my new beautiful camera. I have been drooling over the DSLR cameras that I keep seeing and hearing about and now I will finally have one for myself. I am also looking forward to be able to take some good pics of my family especially my boys. We don't take many pics of our boys but we should. 

GRADIENT NEON KOTD GALS IMAGE PLATES

Today wanted to share some Neon KOTD that I was playing around with. I am trying to use at least one image from all the Gals image plates. I filled down my nails to make it easier to use the images. I know my nails are still pretty long but for me they are shorter..lol

I hope you like them. I am doing them as French Tips to make them easier to stamp. I don't mind double stamping but some images don't double stamp well.

Thank you for dropping by.

Take Care of You!!
